Ahh, that looks like a fun advent calendar!

Looking forward to seeing the annual army photo!

Hmm, sounds interesting! Thanks for posting it. How much cayenne would you use if you don't like really spicy things? (don't wanna do a Mrs Doubtfire )

Just a small sprinkling. I’ve overdone it in the past. I got it right this time, though. More pepper and salt than cayenne.

On Christmas Day there were dolls given and received. Oddly enough I seemed to get more than Lejays this time.



Evie got an addition to her Richmond Tiger supporting crew. This little fellow is called Damian (Dimma for short), he's named for Damian Hardwick; the team's coach, As evidenced by this picture, Evie loves him already.

Does anyone outside of your immediate household (excluding online friends) know that you collect dolls and toys?

That's a very nice hoodie on Damian Bear, there! Back to back championships! Well done, Tigers!

They are so cute together! He's an excellent addition to the supporter crew on the spare chair. (we should reorganise it this week to display them all properly).

My family knows about it - more me than him though. And ask any red-blooded sports-fan about the various figures you can buy in support of the team and they will mostly say they DON'T count as toys, they are Collectible Objects of Team Support or Memorabilia So he has a few Appropriate Collectibles...

That accounts for the bears and plushies. But the "girl dolls"....

It’s just us, I think. By the way Finn is mortally offended at being referred to as a ‘girl’ doll.

Yeah, that works!
Not being a big sports fan, my excuse is Poseable Art That You Can Interact With.
That bear looks super cuddly. Good for squashy hugs in tense game moments, I'm sure!

Haha, this is the advantage of being mentally eleven, I totally still play with dolls and plushies, and if someone judges me for that, they're basically proving that they don't have nearly as much fun in their life as I do

I consider Finn an Action Figure, so he is exempt from any “doll shaming.”

Hehe. I've encountered people like that while having immature fun.
Too much fun is like too much garlic. Other people resent you having either

Finn says he and his sisters stand as one.

So they’re all “action figures,” then? Cool! I’m on board with that!
